Hire applied scientists in the UK

What applied scientists are paid, what to name in the advert, and who you are up against — from the adverts on Artificial Intelligence Jobs, not a survey. Looking for the roles themselves? See Applied Scientist jobs.

What you will pay

Not enough priced adverts yet to publish a range

We only print a figure once enough adverts on this board have stated one. Until then: state a salary, and pitch it at what the role is worth to you rather than what you hope to get away with.

  • Remote or anchored

    A fully remote role draws the whole country and can pay a little under the London figure; an anchored one competes locally and cannot.

  • Greenfield or inherited

    Building from nothing is worth more to the right person than running what exists, and they will ask which it is.

  • Someone senior to learn from

    A strong lead in the team is worth thousands on the offer; without one, expect to pay for that experience directly.
